I'm seeing a file, libm.so.2 in our SunOSsparc directory that holds a lot of .so files. I looked around, and it looks like it's used by the Solaris build. libm.so.2 and libm.so.2 Solaris 8. Is this used by just Solaris8? We support Solaris 9-11. Is it used by all Solaris versions?

We need to identify licenses we're using in our code for submission/release. I need to figure out what version of solaris uses that file, so I can identify the license.

Or, how can I find the version of libm.so.2?

So far I tried:
libm.so.2 ver
libm.so.2 ver
readelf d libm.so.2 | grep SONAME
ident libm.so.2

But they aren't giving me a library version.

Why out of the dozens & dozens of SO files are you fixated on libm.so?
Assume it is used by all version; unless you can prove otherwise.

Because that's the one I need to identify for licensing for my company. We can identify every other one. Oh, and it's libm.so.2, which is different than what you had there. BTW, if I can just identify the libm.so.2 version by itself, that's good too. See my edits above. I know, it's a weird question. Hope you have some suggestions!

what exactly do you mean by "version" in line above?

Every Solaris system I worked on had only single OS version active at any point in time.

find / -name libm.so.2\* -ls 2>/dev/null
